This First Friday Breakfast will explore the many facets of the arts in Denver and specifically their crucial role in defining, amplifying, and creating community across our city. Denver has a long history of embracing and investing in arts and culture to benefit our community. And now, with 26 designated “Creative Districts” across the state, and over 1,000 new residents having moved to Denver each month throughout the early 00’s, Denver is a cultural destination like no other. We’ll unpack the arts as economic driver, as well as culture-keeper, with some of Denver’s top cultural leaders. Join us as we move beyond the murals of RiNo and the galleries of Santa Fe toward how the arts can be a driver to define where and how we live.

Creative Placemaking Artist, Designer, and Entrepreneur
